Le Coup de Foudre (2019)

Hi Everyone!

This drama is so amazing!

This drama is more down-to-earth and more realistic than most romantic dramas out there and it hit me right in the feels and finding out it's based on the author's own experiences got me more in the feels :)
When I started, I thought I would get tired of this drama by episode 20 but surprisingly the drama doesn't get boring, I didn't skip scenes like I normally do with such long dramas (I usually can only watch dramas that are 30 episodes or less) and I usually skip the scenes not involving the main leads. But with this drama, I saw myself getting invested in all the characters.

The following is just a run-down on some of the things I liked and disliked with this drama.
Firstly what I liked:
•The actors who played the main leads were well picked. They display a chemistry that seems so real.
The cast as a whole was perfect. favorite couple besides the main couple is definitely her mother and father :)
•I love the bond that the siblings had, usually, sibling bonds are not shown in the positive light in dramas.

What I didn't like:
•That there was a weird haze/blur present in some of the scenes. I get that it's supposed to help us differentiate between the different timelines but it was distracting at times.
•The cast hardly changed in appearances between the different timelines i.e. they have the same hairstyle even at the same lengths.

Overall I thoroughly enjoyed this drama and will definitely watch it again even if it's just for the main leads :)

Love,
ayaj

Lemme tell y’all. I deadass created an acc to write this review. I feel like I’ve been watching dramas since I was fresh out the womb and none of the c-dramas that I have watched ever made me THIS ADDICTED. What really made me first watch this drama was obv our bbg Janice Wu and the fact that this drama is based on the authors personal experience, therefore being a true story. At first I thought this was going to be a typical “smart guy and dumb girl” or a “girl that can never stand up for herself and needs the guy to protect her” type of drama but y’all i was wrong. Every character is so unique in their way and charm it’s indescribable. Usually when we watch dramas there’s always like one or two characters that you do not like but in this drama you literally cannot not like anyone because of how well they all compliment eachother.

I recommend this drama if you are trying to watch a high quality drama. Please thoroughly watch this and do not skim some parts cause ik y’all can be impatient sometimes. This drama will definitely make you laugh, cry, and learn *make sure you watch till the end of some episodes to know why you’ll “learn”* Also GIRL THE KISS SCENES YALLLL IF U WANTING SOME HIGH QUALITY CHINESE KISSING THEN WATCH THIS DRAMA THERE AINT NO “GUY KISSING A WALL” SCENES. Ok this my first review ever. Bye
